After having updated my PC I do not get to open YaST2 anymore, so I
tried to run yast2 from gnome-terminal, I can open YaST2 main menu
getting the follow message:
Code:
dhcppc0:/home/carla # yast2
/usr/share/themes/Synchronicity/gtk-2.0/gtkrc:46: Clearlooks configuration option “menuitemstyle” is not supported and will be ignored.
After if I try to open any YaST2 sub menu but I can’t open them at all,
and I get the following messages in the gnome-terminal:
Code:
/usr/share/themes/Synchronicity/gtk-2.0/gtkrc:46: Clearlooks configuration option “menuitemstyle” is not supported and will be ignored.
/usr/share/themes/Synchronicity/gtk-2.0/gtkrc:47: Clearlooks configuration option “listviewitemstyle” is not supported and will be ignored.
/usr/share/themes/Synchronicity/gtk-2.0/gtkrc:48: Clearlooks configuration option “progressbarstyle” is not supported and will be ignored.
Really I don’t understand… It was working very well so far, someone
has an idea how to solve the problem?
Do you mean Glossy, openSUSE 11 Gilouche, Clearlooks etc…
In my italian version the application name is “Aspetto”.
If is that I tried but still same problem.
Ok you did try changing your theme already. Something went wrong with
your last update. You are using gnome and maybe the yast installed in
your machine is the yast gtk, not sure though i am not using gnome. Just
for kicks there might be a yast qt installed also, are you using some
kde apps by any chance?
if yes try in terminal kdesu yast2. With gnome try gnomesu yast2 or
gksu yast2
If none works maybe you have to fix yast installation either by using
the install dvd/cd or using smart. or using yast in text mode by running
the command yast in a terminal (not yast2)

Sorry I didn’t made it clear. What I was trying to imply was to try
those commands for yast2 and if it will fail to work the last resort is
to try to run yast in text mode and repair your yast installation by
maybe downgrading it either from the opensuse oss repositories or from
your installation cd/dvd.

Let’s do it slowly and go back from the start.
It seems that this is a gnome related problem generated from your last
update and it affected your yast gtk which I assume is the gnome
default. As I said I am not using gnome but using xfce and using the
yast qt.
Lets try if you can run the yast qt from the terminal and hope it is
installed in your system.
Open a terminal type su, type your root password and type yast2 --qt
– People who do not break things first will never learn to create

By the time, I don’t know if it has been a good idea, I uninstalled
yast2 using testual version (I mean typing yast from root) and all
relative dependecies.
Afer I tried to install it again with this command
Code:
zypper in yast2
Now I can open it (by terminal) but I have only the main mask without
all relative menus, my 1st question is:
How I can re-install yast2 and all relatives dependencies?
With reference to your instruction I tried
Code:
yast2 --qt
I get to open testual interface, but is empty, maybe because I
uninstalled yast2…
Why did you uninstall yast? you could have just update or downgrade it.
I never use zypper
So can’t give you advise on ins and outs regarding it.
Let’s try and check your yast installation using your browser.
Do you have konqueror installed in your system or firefox installed?
Open a terminal and type su type your root password
If you are using konqueror run this command in the terminal as root
Code:
siga kon
If you are using firefox run this command in the terminal as root
Code:
siga fox
As soon as you run those command just wait for a while and there will
be information that will come out as soon as your browser open. In your
browser (konqueror or firefox) look for the rpm and click it and look
for the yast packages installed in your machine, copy and paste it and
post it here so we can compare and see what are the missing yast
packages.
That’s all I can advise you for now.
Note:
Siga only run with root permission
In short you have to open the terminal-type su-type the root
password-type siga kon or siga fox
Hope this helps a bit in diagnosing your problem

Good it is now working
Please try if you can what I said in my previous post so we will see
what’s missing.

It seems that you are missing the yast2 -control-center-gnome it is I
presumed to run your yast-gtk I suspect that as soon as you add it it
will pick some needed dependencies and it might build the missing yast
icon also that you were looking.
With your question about running the yast2 --qt you will need the
package called yast2-qt
As soon as you select it in the yast software management it will
automatically add the packages needed to run it in your system.
Attached is the yast rpms installed in this machine where I am using
right now for comparison.
